[LUG] fstab access

 

Hi all.  Can anyone tell me how I can access the fstab file in the CLI and write to it in recovery mode?  Currently, Ubuntu 11 won't start since I tried to permanently add the Windows OS folders by adding the UUID to the fstab file.  Using the CLI in recovery mode, I can access the fstab file but only as read only, so I can't remove this mount addition, even though I'm accessing it as root.

 I also have an fstab.save and an fstab.save.1 file.  They also have this additional mount instruction.  Are these other 2 fstab files needed?

Any help or advice gratefully received.

Thanks.   Jack.
